Synopsis: The town of Arnao (Asturias province, northern Spain) grew under the wing of the Royal Mining Company. After the closure of its mine and the limitations of its factory at the beginning of the 20th century, many of its employees immigrated to similar factories located far from the sea, at the foot of the mountains of West Virginia. Several new towns were created: Spelter and Anmoore. 90% of their population was Asturians. Luis Argeo traveled from Spain in spring 2006 to document the community with the assistance of Chip Hitchcock of WBPBS.
